Office Supplies Can be Cheap

By Nicky Jackson

Whether you work at home or you are an employee, you have an office full of appetite for office supplies. Here's an article that would interest you - how to save on these money sucking supplies.

The specialty office supply store down the street has great prices and will often have sales. The other place to check is department stores.

For certain supplies, even grocery stores will sell them. Apart from the convenience, the prices are good too.

Local pharmacies run sales on pens, paperclips, staples and even computer paper.

Unless you own a huge company, you do not need 30 pens that are sold at those huge warehouse stores.

Office supplies are usually commodities, so just go online and order away. Just pick ones that you don't need to pay shipping on and you are home free.

Shipping charges can add up, so you may make out better locally.

Specialty stores will have amazingly good deals whenever they have sales. Furthermore, the sales happen frequently.

Pens especially seem to have legs. Just buy the cheap brands that work and forget about buying good ones because people take them anyway.

Computer paper bought at the department store works just as well as the more expensive block you purchase elsewhere. Just make sure it is the weight and quality you prefer.

Ink is not the same as paper. If possible, just buy the original brand because the third party brands just aren't the same in terms of quality.

Never buy something just because it is inexpensive. There is nothing that can spoil your day like a faulty office product.

Save those coupons and you will save a lot of money. Learn to keep track and organize them to save lots of money.

Welcome generic brands with office supplies because they are really the same thing most of the time.

Don't buy bulk if you want to save money. Most office supplies are taken home by employees and not really used anyway, so let them know that they aren't readily available. - 30243
